Abstract
Symmetrical three-branch optical waveguide structures, which can divide power equally at each branch, are proposed from calculations by the beam propagation method. The structures are constructed with a triangular spacing area in the central branch to control the transmission coefficient between each branch and the main waveguide. The proposed three-branch waveguides can be easily designed due to their simple configuration.<>
